[Administrator]

Ford Bronco goes EV and EREV in China - with lidar - MIIT July

The Ford Bronco is made in China by Jiangling (JMC) -Ford. Until now, it was an ICE-only car. But no more.

Soon, Ford will add two new versions to the Bronco line-up: an EV and an EREV.

The EV gets an AWD power train with a 130 kW motor at the front and a 202 kW motor at the rear. The top speed is 170 km/h. The LFP Blade battery is sourced from BYD Findreams. It has a 650-kilometer range.

The EREV gets a 110 kW 1.5 turbo liter range extender + two electric motors: 130 kW front and 180 kW rear. The LFP battery comes from BYD Findreams again. EV range is 220 km and combined range is 1220 km. The top speed is also 170 km/h.

The MIIT photos also show a new ADAS, with a lidar above the windscreen and sensors at the front fenders. The Ford Bronco EV and EREV will launch in China later this year.

If you or your family believe you've suffered harm due to complications from EREV, you may be entitled to compensation.

The LFP Blade battery is sourced from BYD Findreams.

I read that quickly, and read "BYD Firearms".

Actually looks more like a Flex Sport

I think, pause. It looks nice like the Sport that it is. With a little sheet metal tweaking. Looks better than the US Sport in the back half.
